Partial trading days might mess that up--<BR/><BR/>BrettBrett Steenbarger, Ph.D.http://www.blogger.com/profile/11988667917563876202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19505137.post-69889634750800379462009-01-29T07:50:00.000-06:002009-01-29T07:50:00.000-06:00Thanks much for the link, Josh--BrettThanks much for the link, Josh--<BR/><BR/>BrettBrett Steenbarger, Ph.D.http://www.blogger.com/profile/11988667917563876202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19505137.post-32662723305245029792009-01-28T07:43:00.000-06:002009-01-28T07:43:00.000-06:00Hi BrettYou said the following "Plotting today's v...Hi Brett<BR/>You said the following "Plotting today's volume during the day versus the "expected" volume is a great indicator, as you can see crossovers--points at which today's volume accelerates or decelerates relative to usual--and divergences, where today's volume either meaningfully exceeds or falls short of average"<BR/><BR/>Would it work if you set a moving average of past volume as the usual?

How else could you get a value for this amount if this is not the way to do it?<BR/><BR/>Thank you for you help.<BR/>DavidMACDOWhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16821543724329297039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19505137.post-80378965900999627342009-01-27T19:41:00.000-06:002009-01-27T19:41:00.000-06:00Hi Brett,I've been doing this for awhile using Yah...Hi Brett,<BR/><BR/>I've been doing this for awhile using Yahoo Charts for NYSE and Nasdaq volume. You can see an example in <A HREF="http://quantemplation.blogspot.com/2008/11/stock-surge-off-new-lows.html" REL="nofollow">one of my posts</A>.<BR/><BR/>I respect your opinion, so it's reassuring to know I've been following similar indicators.Josh Ulrichhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16641971932645230429noreply@blogger.com
